Ferrari F12 Berlinetta - Most Powerful Ferrari Ever !

Meet the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta! Ferrari claimed that the, let's call it the F12 to be simple, is the fastest production Ferrari to date! For your info, the F12 is the replacement model for the 599, which hardly looks obsolete, right?

Featuring some design cues from the Ferrari FF Shooting Brake, the F12 looks sharp but with some curves at the right places to make it look more interesting. Somehow I noticed the front air intake is shaped to a smile, but of course, this is a Ferrari and Ferraris are suppose to be mean, and the F12 ticked the box.

The F12 uses the same 6.3-litre naturally aspirated V12 powerplant as the FF, but with a bump in power output. The horsepower figure increases from 651hp to 730hp, while the torque increases from 683Nm to 690Nm. These figures enable to F12 to sprint from 0-100km/h in 3.1 seconds! How staggering! Top speed is somewhere around 340km/h.

Typical Ferrari's cabin design, but it does look luxury!

Can't wait to see how it compares to other manufacturers' top-of-the-range supercar!
